1993 Corrado 2.9 VR6

My C has an annoying problem.One day a good few months ago i went to drive my Rado but found the battery completely flat.This has never happened before in the 2 years i had it.Thinking it was the battery i bought a new one and it started first time.2 days later,went to the car and the battery was dead again.Im pretty sure i hadn't left any lights or anything on.I've charged the battery up a few times now but when i leave the car for a few weeks not really driven,the battery goes dead.Is it a commom problem?I think it might be the alarm/immobilizer draining it cause its a good few years old and iv been having problems with it.Its a Clifford Concept 300. Anyone got any ideas?????? Cheers

Surely disableing an alarm cant be that easy. Someone could pull the fuse out and be away with car.I think i need professional help im clueless with car electrics
